The whole Ancient Astronaught idea was first made popular by a Swiss Hotelier called Von Danikin. He wrote a best selling book called Was God an Astronaut in the late sixties/early seventies. If Ancient Astonauts are responsible for everything
It begs the question as to who created them?

Ancient astronauts?

I don't even believe in modern astronauts

I think a bunch of guys were getting really drunk at a pub,
and one guy says,
"I've got to get away from my naggin' wife, I'd do anything to have some peace!"
And another guy says,
"Hey, why don't you take a long holiday fishing, and we'll tell her you went to the MOON!"

And that's how NASA was born.

And ancient astronauts?
They were all doing the same thing.

Men will do anything to get a bit of peace and quiet.

Well...

then the wives started checking up on them,
and they had to actually build a rocket.

The men finally DID get their peace and quiet...
they just didn't get any fish.

I knew a genius in a mobile home park one time. He made his trailer into a rocket....and zoom. Off he went to the moon. I heard he put the first plastic flamingo yard ornaments on the moon. :p

Actually, his first book in 1968 was "Chariots of the Gods ?"
Became a best-seller and he made a fortune. Followed it up with about 20 more books with ever-declining sales.

Like most 'non-fiction' books, it had glimmers of truth here and there and raised a few thought-provoking questions.
But mostly, it was nonsense of course.

I doubt if he cared as he counted his coin.

The fact that no one has mentionned the obvious aliens in this forum is indicative of an admirable self control only surpassed by the fact that the aliens do not beam us up and brainwash the lot of us

did I really just say that?

Aliens? Are you talking Aussies or Canadians?

thanks Jack, this is a cool & illuminating video :)

everyone who's ever been exposed to that tripe on TV ought to watch it.
reposting so it's embedded here instead of linked:

I've never actually seen "Ancient Aliens", but I'm familiar with the Chariots of the Gods arguments and other alien things. I'm about 2/3rds of the way through the documentary. It's very long, but also very good.

Jack, again, thanks a lot for this.
i had only watched about half of it when i posted before and was impressed & delighted -- i've finished the whole 3+ hours now, and not only is the whole thing really well done, but even though this guy is presenting completely secular arguments and his purpose is exposing all the outright lies and manipulation in the 'ancient aliens' show, in doing so he shows a great respect for the Bible in general, defending the integrity of Ezekiel & the accurate transcription of the Jewish texts over time, and supporting the flood narrative & Noah's ark.

it's a long video, but i really enjoyed it! informative in a lot of ways. & i though i hated that show before .. i was glad to learn even more truth about some of their favorite topics.
No worries buddy it's been my interest in getting to the bottom of this alien origin agenda because it's massively on the rise with new age spirituality in the west. Yeah I'm pretty sure the guy who made the video is christian, he's got other very good debunking content and informative videos. Glad to bring truthful content to those who are interested in truth.

I've watched the 3+ hour documentary. It was very well done and soundly-researched. "Ancient Aliens" doesn't deserve such time and attention to being refuted, but this guy did an excellent job.

The thing that staggers me about this junk, is the boring reality of life. As humans we have not changed over 4,000 years, just our knowledge base and means of passing this on.

So back then you have the same geniuses and people who wonder at life as you do today, but everything is do it yourself.
The challenge is carving out massive boulders and moving them slowly with armies of men from A to B.

Given this lack of restriction of muscles and infinite brain power of human enginuity it is easily possible even with stone and wood cutting tools. The fact that people today want to imagine aliens would be interested in helping like this is just insane, literally insane. It is like us visiting the jungle tribes in papua new guinea and helping them build better log houses. Their needs are much greater in other areas, which is where the influence would take place.

The reason why these civilisations built such stone edifices was to claim they were gods to their own people, and only gods could do such things, which is the argument the "alien invader believers" are fallling for. Do you not see how seductive the lie is. Guys 4000+ years old can get people today to say, "they could not have done this unless they were gods, wow..."

Solomon said, That which is going to be has already been......I have no problem believing that mankind was as advanced or more advanced than we are right now before the flood.....There are cities that show signs of vitrification which is the result of a Nuclear Strike and the way the people are scattered with their bones having extremely higher elevations of radiation.....
I agree here.
Recall Jesus saying that as it was in the days of Noah...
Sometimes a literal interpretation makes the most sense.
We have paintings of batteries and lightbulbs in the pyramids. Curious however that we see no pictures of how exactly these past works were completed.
I'm inclined to believe the literal word of God. Considering man's supposed limit of vocabulary (?), we cant dismiss the possibility that the Bible quotes exactly what was truth.
If God's angels fell from grace and were allowed to dwell on earth, why can we not see that Aliens are Fallen Angels? These fallen were said to impart knowledge to humanity. This included building and construction to be sure. Technology isn't a new vice. It plainly states in God's word that "as it was in the days of Noah".. And " what was will be again."
I believe Hollywood's obsession with polluting our minds goes a long way toward causing Christians confusion. Rely on the Word. Its not hidden in code. Early Christian dogmas must be revisited and corrected. Enoch, I believe, is inspired by God as it directly quoted in cannonized Scripture. Enoch also quotes Scripture. We can't forget that man put together what they wanted to preach. They created a warped and incomplete version of our Creator and his creation. Aren't we warned of great deceptions? Aliens from other galaxies is one such example.
Remember that Science isn't fact. It too is buried in ancient dogmas. Science is a philosophy, presenting its theories as fact.. Indicates its a theology. So our belief that the universe is billions and hundreds of billions of galaxies doesn't convince me there are aliens. In fact, because all these other possible universes aren't mentioned in Scripture, I believe it to be part of the ultimate deception.
The EARTH is God's creation. And until his word indicates otherwise, I'll continue to believe "Alien abductions" are merely fallen angels continuing to dally with the daughters of men.
Nephilim were and are men of renown. Heroes of antiquity. Greek and Roman mythology I believe is truth in that it chronicles the Sons of Elohim, fallen angels dalliances with humans. "...as it was in the time of Noah..."
Knowledge was given to man via these fallen. We know exactly what knowledge was shared because the Bible tells us. Remember the children's song Jesus loves me... for the Bible tells me so. The faith of children. Believe the literal word. I don't think its open to interpretation myself. God said and did exactly what we read. He destroyed mankind, save Noah, because of the intermingling between Angels and Mankind.
DNA. Aliens "abduct" and "perform experiments." To me this indicates that the fallen have resumed their interference. The 70 generations that they were bound is said to have ended in 1900 or so.... Until then.. How slowly did humanity advance on its own? And in 1900+... Are we not amazed at "humanity's" capabilities?
My how quickly we forget our Creator.

Also, the book of Enoch is culturally interesting and important, but it's not the inspired Word of God.

Not sure if anyone knows of this or if anyone would even be interested. I am curious on your thoughts about it and why you believe or why you do not. Please no ignorant posts just to get your post count higher. I prefer intelligent posts :)

I don't feel the need to explain what it is, I'm not teaching it I am just simply seeing if anyone else finds it interesting??

Basic idea is in the past beings from another planet to assist the people of earth in building structures nearly 4,500 years ago (Egypt Pyramids, Pyramids in Peru, Puma Punku, etc.), and to teach them better ways of building. Some think it was a way of advancing the civilizations.

If you look at the stones in Peru a lot of them being granite over 200 tons. Smooth cut edges that modern stone workers claim would take a lifetime to do by hand, and nearly impossible with modern machinery. Placed so perfectly a piece of paper wouldn't go between them. Also, you have the Ica stones in Peru that show carvings of humans interacting with beings, or the nazca lines that can only be viewed from the sky, something that wasn't possible.

Obviously in 3,000 BC there were no machines capable of lifting or carving such stones. Even modern with modern technology it would be hard to move these stones. How did it happen?

pretty much shows how the ancient astro guys lie about things like translations and materials. shows how they ignore all the surrounding evidence at these sights, like stones in multiple stages of being worked on, ramps, tools, debunked geology theory, drag marks and rope holes being ignored. shows how the romans were moving 700 ton blocks when herod rebuilt the temple in 19 bc. i could go on and on or you could watch the video and see which is more believable for yourself.

could be chuck norris traveled back in time and did it all with his bare hands....
